Recording and sending voice notes in Team
Record a voice note from the Team composer's π€ button and send it as an audio message.
The Team composer has a microphone button (π€) for recording voice notes and sending them straight into a Space or Direct Message, just like on WhatsApp.
Requirements
- Your browser needs audio-recording support (
MediaRecorder), and you'll need to grant microphone permission when prompted. - This button only shows when the composer allows attachments (it's hidden, for example, in a Space's read-only "announce mode").
Steps to record and send
- Open a Space or a Direct Message and tap the microphone icon π€ in the composer's action row.
- Accept the microphone permission if your browser asks for it.
- Recording starts: you'll see a pulsing red dot and an mm:ss timer.
- Tap β to cancel (nothing is sent) or β to send the voice note.
- The note uploads and shows up in the conversation as a playable audio message.
Example
An agent needs to walk a teammate through a long procedure: instead of typing a paragraph, they tap π€, record 40 seconds explaining the steps, and tap β. The teammate gets the audio and listens to it right in the Space's thread.
Tips
- If you switch conversations mid-recording, the recording stops automatically.
- The file is saved as something like
nota-de-voz-<timestamp>in whatever audio format your browser supports.
Troubleshooting
- "Couldn't access the microphone": check your browser's microphone permissions for the Omnifox site (the padlock icon in the address bar).
- "Your browser can't record audio": use an up-to-date browser (recent Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari); some older browsers don't support
MediaRecorder. - "Voice note is too large": record a shorter message; there's a file-size limit for Team attachments.
